Thanks for considering me, but I'm hella busy recently, and I'm already hosting two games. Please think of me the next time you need someone though! And if you ever need anyone to pick factions, I'm always happy to help out!

Tam-Lin, I have the PDF of the manual on my home computer, I can upload it/send it somewhere on Sunday (I am traveling atm).

Also really the best way to remember how to play is to read the LP's (thats the only way I know anything). They tend to address all the things the manual forgets and remind you of stuff that is easy to miss.

Okay we may well poke you for faction selection again not sure yet.

We're waiting for Tam-lin's votes, in the meantime can everyone including Tam-lin pm me their email address.

I'll set up the dropbox and generate say 5 maps based on 6 people for people to vote on.

Once i've got everyone invited and voting on the maps i'll take the recruiting status off the thread but until then we've still got room for 2 more people to join at the same time.

So both CBM and Awesome Gods just got updated yesterday. Hopefully a new version of Forbidden Friendship will be coming soon too.

Major changes in AG are based around the idea of:

"Rainbows get few starting paths, at low levels, with magicboost to make their innates higher, making them good casters, bad blessers.
Magical beasts are the inverse, having high bless paths but penalties to casting.
Titans are opposite in another way, having very high innate real paths, but having very high path cost, making it difficult for them to go outside their nature."

Basically magicboost ups paths for casting, but not for blessing. Also means if you empower a path you have zero in you get boosted as well. Negative magic boos does the oppsite, nice big bless but shitty casting.

Okay I had a pm from Tam-lin last night with his email and abstaining from the voteing.

I'll count any abstains as a vote for default and that puts the settings at:-

Era:- 2 straight early, 1 straight middle, 1 abstain, 1 early/middle and I'll support early so Early Era it is.

Independents:- 5 votes for the default 5

Score graphs:- 2 vote off, 4 vote on so they're on

Map size:- 3 for 15, 2 for 12 and 1 tam-lin's abstain (the default small map is 12 medium is 15) so map size 15

Factions:- 1 abstain, 3 for working teams out first.

Picking method:- 3 abstain, I read laiskbear as supporting Nulkigan's method which got partly outvoted so it doesn't read correctly anymore. See end of message.

Comms:- all forms between team mates.

Nulks, myself and rotekian I read as supporting all forms outright While Lasikbear only encourages ingame use so all forms are legit.

As an addendum to this though I'd like teams to share one password for their nations to allow the possibility of your teammate taking your turn if needed, this would also potentially allows people to directly view their teammates map for practicality's sake i'd like to formally allow this.

AI:- 4 votes for 1 AI per 2 humans and so that's a yes but see the end of this message.

Time limit:- 2 abstain, 4 votes for 4 day turn over long term, 2 day turn over short term. 2 of those 4 set the turn the limit changes as turn 20 and i'll support that.

Team selection:- 3 random, 2 abstain and i'll support the random. But see the next bit.

Hall of fame :- 15

Okay we've got 3 teams and wedge99 is the odd man out, I seems a shame to exclude him so If he want's I'd like to offer him the chance to be in a team of his own, as partial compensation he'd get first pick of nation outside of other peoples randomization.

After wedge99 has picked his nation (if he does) then most things I can think of seem a bit complicated so instead we get The Innocent to randomly put us in order and we just pick our nation, you can of course discuss your options with your team mate.

Next step then is having The Innocent telling us who's paired with who and the order we pick nations in.

You'll also soon recieve dropbox invites and i'll make the maps when I know if Wedge99 wants to join on his own or not.

Reason: Because Lasikbear is right
